Vitis 'Vanessa' - Grape Vine
Availability: In stock
One of the very best seedless red grapes for cooler climates, Vitis ‘Vanessa’ is celebrated for its exceptional sweetness, beautiful rosy-red fruit, and reliable cropping, even when summers are shorter. The medium-sized, well-filled bunches ripen to a glowing pinkish-red flush, each translucent berry bursting with juicy flavour and delicate richness. Crisp yet tender-skinned, the grapes are perfect for eating fresh from the vine, delivering a true taste of late summer and early autumn straight from your garden. Its vigorous climbing habit makes it ideal for training over pergolas, wires, fences, or sunny walls.
Easy to grow and notably hardy, Vitis ‘Vanessa’ thrives in a warm, sheltered position in full sun with well-drained soil, rewarding gardeners with dependable crops when pruned and trained correctly. For attractive planting combinations, pair it with lavender to enjoy contrasting texture and shared love of sunny conditions, plant at its base with strawberries for a productive, space-saving display, or combine with a climbing wisteria to add movement and complement the hanging feature of grape vines. With its ornamental appeal, delicious seedless fruit, and excellent cold tolerance, this is an outstanding choice for gardeners seeking both beauty and abundance from a single vine.
